adamtdot vs. 40oz Graphire (finished)

adamtdot

i liked yours 40oz, but it didn't reall ring "hip-hop" and a lot of the text was really difficult to read.

Fit the theme more and I like the grunginess.

It has a very original feel to it. Although the tone of the image doesn't say "Hip-Hop", the addition of Mos Def does, which made it fit. "Hip-Hop' is a very tough topic to put on "paper" in an artistic way, but I think you achieved it very well.

Yea mattboy, it is hard because hip hop means different things to different people. Some people think hip hop is the Nelly's, Ja Rules, and Master P's with all the flashy Platinum jewelry and $1,000,000 cars. I believe that hip hop is more of a cultural thing that represents hard times, black history, and just plain music to impress people. Thats what Mos Def and others are all about. They could care less how much their watch costs, they are 100% focused on their music. And try to find Mos Def talking about f**king this girl and killing that guy...youll never find it in any of his songs. So Yea, you made a good point, hip hop can be looked at from different angels.

Yes, I agree with most of the ppl, Adamdot's one is nicer... believe me I know hiphop and Ive been in the music for years, Im more in Gangsta Rap then in Hiphop, Im more a Eazy-E, Dresta, BG KNocc out dude then tab & mos def fan...

I actually like 40oz's more.... i like the creativity
dont get me wrong thou MOS DEF is one of the best

I thought both were good but, like some others where sayin' it seemed to fit the "hip hop' theme a little better. It reminds me of a poster you might see nailed to a telephone poll, all weathered and worn. Nice job guys.

originality wins this time... Maybe it isn't as hip hoppy as adams pic, but I like it anyhow. Great works both of you!
Great grungy pic if it is your first...

Adamtdot wins with 10 votes to 3. Great win Adam, if that's your first grunge, be happy Nice work both of you.
